Functional changes in systemic and regional (intracranial) circulation accompanying low accelerations
Functional changes in systemic and cerebral hemodynamics were studied with respect to vestibular stresses. The main types of responses, differing qualitatively with respect to the tolerance of test subjects to low accelerations (particularly to Coriolis accelerations), were established. This is of practical importance in the selection of aircraft and space pilots. The data presented sheds light on the physiological mechanisms of adaptation and disturbed compensation during vestibular stimulation. Further studies in this important field of aerospace medicine are outlined.
